Yes. Exploring the lower levels or they cyberpunk stuff we saw in Episode II.
In the Young Han Solo Trilogy by AC Crispen, Han Solo goes down there. It was one of my favorite star wars scenes it was so cool It felt a bit like the sewer scenes in Relic and Reliquary .

I never read those; it probably wouldn't hurt to start. I've only read the Brian Daley Solo trilogy because that was what my elementary school library had.

I probably would have liked the Lord-Miller version of Solo better. At least that would have involved them doing something different. The movie we got has so much pandering and annoying prequel bullshit. I think there's a glimpse of a really good movie we get there; it would center largely around Solo in the imperial military.

I would have liked to see that too. Solo is kind of forgettable to me, often asking questions that no one wanted the answers for as the meat of the film. As opposed to other robots in SW, this droid didn't really feel alive to me, just another quirky knock-off on the idea. It's too bad because I felt like Ehrenreich and Glover were fine in their roles.

Exactly. Like, where did Han get his blaster? Why does the ship's computer speak in a peculiar dialect? So tedious; this is what I meant by annoying prequel bullshit. It was extremely forgettable, in contrast to ROS which was unforgettably awful. Both Glover and Ehrenreich deserved to be in a better movie. We may see more of Glover, at least. I'm hoping we don't get another Obi-Wan, where they bring a big name back only to do something lame with him. That may be a fool's hope.
